Nidecker Alpha Apx vs Nidecker Ultralight

How they compare

the Nidecker Alpha Apx leans more all mountain, while the Nidecker Ultralight leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The Nidecker Ultralight is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range.
